Toggle Barrier Block Visibility for Map Testing

Enabling Visible Barriers

Barrier blocks are invisible by default in Minecraft, making them difficult to work with during map creation. This mod lets you see them instantly.

Steps:

1. Press the B key (default keybind) while in-game to toggle barrier block visibility

2. All barrier blocks in your loaded chunks will render as solid, opaque blocks

3. Press B again to hide them and return to normal visibility

Customizing the Keybind

If the default keybind conflicts with another mod or your preferences:

1. Open your controls/keybinds settings in the pause menu

2. Search for "Visible Barriers" or "Toggle Barriers"

3. Click the keybind and press your desired key

4. The new keybind takes effect immediately

This feature is essential when placing barrier blocks for map boundaries, invisible walls, or collision detection zones. Toggle visibility on and off as needed to see both the barriers and your map's appearance simultaneously.
